Comments
Comments: It was a great birthday hike! A little rainy, but I was stoked to not encounter snow and/or postholes after hiking Isolation a couple weeks ago. A nice, lightly rainy, hike with a whole lot of lively greenery!

The one "heads up" I would give would be to expect the trail to be a bit slippery in spots due to mud. I took a few easy slips, which I caught myself, and one tumble... but I sometimes cruise faster than I should while going downhill!
